We didn’t see this one on our exhaustive leaked Nokia roadmap, but our homeboy Boy Genius has uncovered pics and specs of a new Nokia flip destined for AT&T. Codenamed “Wahoo,” the quad-band clamshell features an interesting half-QWERTY keypad, an internal 2.2-inch QVGA display and a 1.36-inch external unit, push-to-talk, microSD expansion, and A2DP support — which you’ll need because Nokia seems to think a 2.5mm headphone jack is still somehow acceptable. No word on a release date, but if you’re waiting on pins and needles for a phone with a display that small we really can’t help you anyway.

Gifu University’s Graduate School of Medicine, long fed up with subjecting the general public to the horrors of teaching hospitals (you’ve seen
Scrubs, right?) has teamed up with the Mizuno Technical Institute in Japan to develop Keiko — an interactive humanoid robot that mimics a number of neurological disorders, responding to the doctor’s touch and even holding rudimentary conversations. The robot gives students the opportunity to observe and diagnose rare brain and nervous system illnesses in a classroom setting, where no one can get hurt — not a bad idea, so long as this doesn’t result in a generation of doctors who confuse “veins” with “wires.”
